Bollywood siren Riya Sen was spotted
wildly cheering for 'good friend' S.
Sreesanth's Kochi Tuskers IPL team in
Mumbai, adding fresh fuel to reports of
their link- up once again.Riya, who first
met Sreesanth while shooting a commercial for a jewellery brand some
time ago, has unofficially become the
face of the IPL team which the Indian
fast bowler represents. Apart from
being spotted in Navi Mumbai's DY Patil
Stadium on Wednesday, she has also been seen partying hard with the Kochi
boys, especially Sreesanth."Riya and
Sreesanth seem quite friendly. They
met during the shoot of a commercial
and have stayed in touch with each
other since then. Riya was at the stadium to cheer him. She sat
throughout the match and was seen
silently breaking into a prayer almost
every time Sreesanth came to bowl.
Unfortunately, Kochi lost the match,"
said a source at the stadium.The loss, however, did not deter Riya from
posing for a few quick photo- ops with
the Kochi team, which the Bong
Bombshell has chosen to support over
Kolkata Knight Riders, the IPL team of
her hometown Kolkata.Riya subsequently posted a snapshot of hers
with the Kochi staff on her Twitter
account. Over the past few months, the
buzz has been strong over Riya's
closeness to Sreesanth. The fast bowler
is known for his flamboyant lifestyle and sources say Riya is his latest
interest. Riya was also spotted at
several World Cup matches and
managed to catch up with Sreesanth,
who was part of the squad."Sreesanth
is a flashy sort of a guy and his glamour makes girls go crazy, no matter how he
fares on the field. After meeting him,
Riya's interest in cricket has also
grown. Earlier, she never followed
cricket so keenly. It is no coincidence
that she chose to support the Kochi team this year and has planned to
watch as many matches of the team as
she can. However, it would be too early
to say they are in love. Riya is not very
open about her personal life and avoids
commenting on such issues," said the source.This is not the first time
Sreesanth has been linked with B-town
beauties. In 2008, he took part in a
dance reality show. His partner was TV
actress Surveen Chawla and rumours
suggested they were seeing each other then.Later, his name was linked with
Minissha Lamba. Minissha and
Sreesanth met in a casino at Macau and
were spotted hanging out together on
several occasions. Soon afterwards,
the buzz on Sreesanth was that he was dating Kannada star Sanjana. Since
then his name has also been linked
with Telugu star Lakshmi Rai.
